Thread Name: BS: The GOP will steal the election [2012]
Subject: RE: BS: The GOP will steal the election
The ONE sure way to counteract the voter suppression, voter intimidation, and electronic vote flipping is to TURN OUT IN HUGE NUMBERS to vote.   If the actual preferences of those who vote (or try to vote) are nearly evenly split (within a couple percentage points) it's pretty easy for an election to be stolen by selectively preventing people from voting in certain districts and/or by tampering with the voting machines.    But it's much harder to do that if one candidate (or issue) is actually winning by a large margin.

So do not be discouraged.   Get mad! Get energized! And get out there and VOTE!

I'll also say to the Democrats who, on election night, SEEM to have lost by a fairly slim margin: DO NOT CONCEDE until ALL the votes have been counted, including absentee ballots and provisional ballots.    (Hear that, John Kerry?)
